I’m 100% completely and totally indifferent to the gender or the sexual orientation of a ship captain. The only thing that I care about is that they do their job properly.

I support meritocracy because I want ship captains who don’t crash their ship into a reef and spill oil and other toxic chemicals into the ocean.

Supporters of DEI were so focused on giving the job to a lesbian that they neglected to care about the person’s qualifications or experience.

This article says that criticism of her is based on “sexism and homophobia.”

I can’t speak for other critics, but I myself am 100% completely and totally indifferent to the gender or the sexual orientation of a ship captain. The only thing that I care about is that they do their job properly.

DEI just cost New Zealand a $100M navy ship, has just about eliminated electricity in South Africa, and has put us on the brink of WW3.

DEI is basically reversion to a post-industrial state

She was captaining a SURVEY SHIP, outfitted with the best sonar...

Yeah, that's the part that is being swept under the, ah, carpet - she was supposed to be looking for reefs, yes, and found one. Ramming it wasn't part of the deal.

“I will wait to read the findings of the COI before commenting on this incident and CDR Gray’s role in it. “

The system that put her in there is corrupt. When it investigates itself it will still be corrupt.

Quite possible...But other than a properly maintained equipment failure or sabotage, it would be difficult not to find personnel error responsible... for which a CO would ultimately be at fault.

DEI has no place in a military chain of command.
